Download or read book Managing Ict in Large New Zealand Secondary Schools written by Robert Douglas and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reviewing research on how ICT is managed in large secondary schools shows a significant gap in research in this area. The Review of Schools' Operational Funding: ICT Resourcing Framework - Final Report describes a need for sound ICT management and strategic planning in schools yet no research was located to describe how this is actually achieved. This research explores how two large New Zealand secondary schools manage their ICT systems. Two schools of differing decile ratings are examined and those involved in managing their ICT were interviewed, along with teaching staff in both schools. Making extensive use of direct quotes from the interviews a picture of the management structures, strategic planning and ICT alignment in each school is built and then the two compared. The pictures developed in these two case studies show significant complexity in the functional management structures found and pose a number of observations and questions for further study. In particular, the roles of the Director of ICT and of the ICT Committee are examined.

Download or read book Information Technology in Educational Management written by Ben-Zion Barta and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Educational institutions in which administrators, managers and teachers will be working in the late 1990's will be far different from those oftoday. Schools, which until recently were lagging behind in the implementation of information technology (IT) in their administration and management, are now attempting to close the gap. A massive and rapid computerization process in schools, school districts and throughout the other Ievels of the educational system, including universities, has made computers an integral part of the educational management scene. A computer on the desk of every educational management statT might become a reality in the near future. The term "IT" includes three main components: hardware, software - mainly management information systems (MIS)/decision support systems (DSS) and human factors. Presently, successful implementation depends on adequate software and on human factors. MIS/DSSs are being implemented with the aim of providing meaningful support for school employees in their daily activities, and to improve their performance, etfectiveness and efficiency. Much like at universities, usable and accessible school databases are being established, encompassing data on students, teachers, employees, classrooms, grade Ievels, courses, student achievements and behavior, school space, curriculum, finance, inventory, transportation, etc.

Download or read book The Role of Information and Communication Technology in the Management of Selected Secondary Schools in Central Uganda written by Abdallah Ziraba and published by . This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Pedagogy - Media Pedagogy, grade: -, - (Makerere University Uganda Kampal), course: Masters of Education In information and Communication Technology, language: English, abstract: The study was about establishing the role of ICT in the management of secondary schools in selected schools of Central Uganda with particular interest on the role of ICT in enhancing effective financial management, the effect of ICT on examination management; setting, testing, record keeping and grading system and the role of ICT in enhancing effective communication in selected secondary schools in central Uganda. The study was prompted by the realization that management in many secondary schools in Uganda was characterized by inefficiency in the areas of financial management, examination management and dissemination of information in schools which had resulted into declining academic standards yet schools had ICT facilities that could enhance effective management. The study was carried out in selected secondary schools in Central Uganda. I used a cross sectional survey design in this study and I collected data using semi-structured survey questionnaires, interviews and observation. I logically analyzed Qualitative data as the study progressed and I used a Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) and excel to analyze quantitative data. Purposive sampling technique was used and tables were used to determine the sample sizes. Upon the role of ICT on management of financial issues, I discovered that most of the schools were applying ICT facilities in management of financial issues; however some of the administrators lacked enough computer skill to effectively use ICT in the financial management of the school. The mostly used ICT facilities included electronic databases, internet, and computer applications such as Excel, Word and Access for managing teacher's pay rolls, allowances, salaries, school fees payment verification and procurement

This book was released on 2015-10-07 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this digital age, technology has become a very vital factor of development in all disciplines. Every day new software, devices and other technologies are being developed to improve lives in one way or another. Technology in its broadest terms could include the collection of tools, machinery, devices, modifications, arrangements and procedures used by humans. However, in the context of Educational Technology as presented in this book, it is understood as technologies that have arrived with the Information Revolution i.e. those associated with computers and Information Communication Technology. Examples of such technologies are electronics devices, computer, video, collaborative writing tools, social networking and the Internet. Innovative applications of technology in the classroom mean more than teaching basic computer skills and software programs in the class. It must happen across the disciplines and curriculum in ways that teaching and learning processes can be enhanced. It must also support active engagement, group participation, local and global collaboration, and interaction. This book presents innovative applications of educational technology tools in teaching and learning across various disciplines.
